Like Ray Charles, he became blind as a child. Like Dave Thomas, he was adopted. Like many kids, he learned to play guitar at a young age. Later, he would tour with, or sit in with such notable stars as Jerry Lee Lewis, George Harrison, Eric Clapton, B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughn and Buddy Guy. Then, sadly, he died young (41 - cancer).

This song, "While my guitar gently weeps", is a version of a song by George Harrison, performed by the brilliant guitarist Jeff Healey. You can find it in the album "Platinum & Gold Collection" by The Jeff Healey Band, edited in 2004.
Norman Jeff Healey (March 25th 1966-March 2th 2008) has been a brilliant guitarist. His style mixed jazz, blues, rock...
He was born in Toronto (Canada). When he was less than 1 year old, he lost his sight due to a retinoblastoma (a cancer of the eyes).
Healey fought against this terrible illness all his life, until the cancer killed him when he was 41 years old.
Healey was a fan of John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, Clapton... Without a doubt, these artists were a big influence in his work. When he was only 6 years old, he made his debut.
We will never forget his powerful way of playing, with the guitar flat on his lap.
